The Ball Behind the Love of the Court
111. Empty Brain Villains

Today we do the usual, morning gymnastics, breakfast, rest exercises then back exercises in the afternoon. Exercise is cool because in practice interspersed with laughter. Coach Jaka said this makes our mental relax so as not to tense.

When I got home, I came home on purpose lately. See the view for a while and then run to the bus to go home. Suddenly someone approached me and followed me. I accelerated, while my friends were already far ahead.

"Emm, pelein tolo....." I don't know who they are. Which came suddenly and instantly smothered my mouth.

To say help I can't. He was the one who accidentally kidnapped me and put me in a black car. I kept fighting, but they were too big to fight.

*Plak*a hard blow to the head turns everything black.

ANI POV

"Everything is complete?" Ask coach Jaka when we've entered the bus to go home after practice this afternoon.

"Ready coach" I was confused by what they said, but Key was still not sitting next to me. Maybe he was sitting in the back.

Our bus has gone to the inn. Singing as usual on the bus. When everything came down, I walked back into the room. But Ira's all I see, and Keyla's not in the room yet.

"Ira, have you seen Keyla?" Ask her.

"No, isn't he sitting with you on the bus?" Ask ira back.

"No, I think he's sitting with the others in the backseat" I panicked to hear a statement from Ira. It turns out Key wasn't on the back bench.

I immediately ran to report it to the coach, because Keyla was missing. I'm afraid he was left at the training ground earlier. So I rushed to find Jaka's coach.

"Where are you going Ani?" Rani came from behind and rebuked me.

"I want to tell you that Key isn't in the room, I'm afraid he's missing" I said frantically, explaining to him.

"So I saw Key, he was sitting in the back seat" he explained.

"really?" My heart was a little relieved when I heard her statement.

"Yes, it looks like he's out for a while" he said casually.

"Thank God then" I immediately returned to the room to tell Ira.

Upon returning to the room, Ira said that Keyla was not behind the bus at all. He even noticed that the bus was full. And he said there was no Keyla, when it came down also did not find Key.

"Then how is this? " Task ira to me who is currently really panicking.

"Follow me, to coach Jaka"

We both panicked, I immediately called Key's number but there was no answer. The number being dialed is inactive and out of range. I don't think I'm calm when I don't see Key directly. I and Ira immediately rushed to meet with coach Jaka.

The two of us ran through the hallway of the room and headed straight for Jaka's coach room to inform him of the information.

*Tok,tok,tok*Hard and shaking beats.

"Coach, coach Jaka" I shouted to the coach in the room.

"Here, Ira, why are you panicking?" Coach Jaka asked when he saw Ira and Ira running with panicked faces.

"Breath first just talk, calm and calm" coach Jaka told us both.

"Keyla's missing coach" I said to surprise coach Jaka.

"How can "coach Jaka not believe. Because at the time of checking, the player said that everything was on the bus.

Me and Ira tried to explain from beginning to end. This happened because of a misunderstanding between me and the players at the back. I also admit that Key is not here because of my careless mistakes and not checking Key's whereabouts.

Coach Jaka and the other coaches split the task. Some coaches go out to look for Key and some collect us all to do a re-check.

"Quick collect players"

"Good coach"

All players are instructed to stay in the lodging environment and no one should come out so that the same thing does not happen. Everyone went into their own rooms. Everyone was feeling anxiety, and so was I.

"Oh, you've been pacing around like an iron" when Ira rebuked me.

I don't think I'm comfortable when I haven't seen Key, I'm afraid of unwanted things happening. Because it's not usually the kid disappears like this.

"I'm afraid of Key why-why" I said with a very anxious face.

"We better pray and pray to the Creator, who knows Keyla is still there or shopping" Ira's words grow a little hope in you.

Ira and Ira immediately took ablution water and performed Isha' prayers'. At the same time make a restless and worried heart become calm.

"God, help your servant to seek Keyla, and protect Key wherever he may be" only this time I prayed with a very deep heart.

I'm afraid my partner at this club is why-why. Maybe because I was so close to him. Key is one of the people who makes me comfortable.

Ira beside me also prayed and cried. He who has just known Key has felt the loss, but we have no news whether Key is missing or just left on the field earlier.

I also could not stem these very heavy tears.My heart ached from the fear of losing a friend. Only Key can understand what I've been through at this club.

"Where is natural, go back" these tears still wet the cheeks when given the state of Key that has not been found.

After the prayer, Ira and Ira could not sleep before hearing from coach Jaka. We just kept going in and out of the room to see if coach Jaka and the other coaches had gone home or not.

*prittt*

"Gather all in the garden" Instruction for all of us.

Not long after that coach Jaka gathered us all in the middle of the inn garden. It brought us very bad news. Coach Jaka searched every corner where we practiced. Keyla wasn't around and she completely disappeared.

"No, Keyla didn't disappear. Hiks... " My tears broke again.

The news that broke my heart and cried, even all the players were crying. On one side felt the sadness of losing Keyla's figure. And on one side we lost the back wall figure in a really tough team.

Keyla is very influential in the team, if he is lost then the team will be destroyed. Nothing will comfort me when sad, nothing can calm us on the pitch when emotions, nothing even makes us laugh when the mind is so full of problems.

"Coach, why not call the police" said one of our colleagues.

"They received a report that Key had been missing for 1x24 hours" a very painful answer. How's Key out there, I'm afraid he's hurt.

I am confused by this situation, even I cannot do anything. To go out alone should not be because we are required to rest because it will carry out the match tomorrow.

"All of you should sleep and please rest with enough to prepare for tomorrow"

"Good coach"

The coach gives orders for all players to go to bed immediately and not think about this. He said all this would be borne by the coach. Those who will be responsible for searching for the existence of Key.

That still hasn't calmed my heart. Ira and Ira continued to stare at the white walls, remembering that we used to joke before going to bed. Seeing the bathroom that sometimes scramble to enter, sometimes also Key always relented.

"Key, I hope you're okay. I'm sure you'll be back" there's a lot of hope in my heart, I'm sure Key will be back and will play tomorrow. I'm sure it's because Key is a strong boy.

POV ANI FINISHED

"Oh, this is where it is" I murmured inwardly as I opened my eyes.

My hands and feet are tied. Even my mouth was covered with a cloth. I don't know which place this is, which is obviously a big warehouse.

My eyes looked around, a lot of wood neatly arranged. But I don't understand what this place is, if it's a woodworking place then why am I here.

I remember that this afternoon after practice there was someone trying to kidnap me. And now it's just me. There's no one here.

"Bosss, he's awake" a cry that made my gaze stare at him.

He is a person with a different body, one has a stocky body but the other is thin like malnourished.

"Well, I finally woke up. It's so good to sleep you are" they both came close to me. Where else does his breath smell. They approached while opening my mouthpiece.

"Who are you?" My toot.

"I'm a coki, and this is my boss blackcoy" he replied kindly like he wasn't a criminal.

*Plak*hard slap in the head from his friend on the skinny guy.

"Why do you tell us our names"

"Let him know us bosses" they're busy arguing with each other's opinions.

It seemed like the skinny one was his men and the burly one was the boss. If you look around the skinny guy seems more stupid than me. Fostering a sense of profit hope confers with it.

"Okay, why are you guys so noisy. True also know the word skinny, if we are acquaintances" said I try to follow the words of the two of them.

"That's the right boss said he, uh bentar. Why are you calling me skinny" he approached right in my face. Again his breath smelled of stomach.

"Well, if I call you fat, you take the power of your fat boss"

*Plak* slap back landed on the skinny guy's head.

"He was right, he said, you must not take my strong name" he said. I saw it trying to hold back the laughter.

A very friendly conversation left me with a very bright idea. Because my stomach was hungry so I wooed them with beautiful words until they both bought me food and untied me.

"You're a good man, how can you starve this little girl?" I muttered softly.

"Rapidly buy me a meal" Without further ado the big boss told the skinny guy to need food for me.

"All right"

After eating they tied me up again, strange but not what's important I'm not starving. It turned out that they were both kind to me as well and we kept talking with my tied hands.

"Don't you like balls?"

"Like dong" the two of them answered simultaneously.

"Like what club?"

"If in Indonesia like the Persib Bandung club" replied the burly criminals.

"If I like Persebaya" continued bang cungkring.

I kept asking questions about the ball so they could keep my brain calm and relaxed. Especially now that I can relax, fortunately they both can be invited to talk about the ball.

After speaking the ball in Indonesia, I and they talked about the ball abroad. Tells about the greatness of the skills possessed by the main star players in the world. Ronaldo and Messi.

Turns out she was talking to them too until my lips got tired. It doesn't feel like time is getting late. They both fell asleep earlier than I did. Then I followed him to sleep even though by sitting in a chair with a tied state.

The morning sun woke me up by force. While they are still sleeping in their own sleep. I didn't know what to do, wanted to run away but couldn't move at all. The game will be played this afternoon and I need to get out of here.

"Oh, it hurts" I murmured as I tried to untie the rope. But the one that binds in the hand is very strong and I cannot let go. I tried a few times but still couldn't.

"Hmmm". The burly criminal woke up while stretching his body.

\*Blak\* he casually kicked the gungkring until it rolled over.

"Oh, the sick boss knows" the regret that made me laugh with the behavior of both of them.

Now I am silent again because I cannot run from this place. Because they're awake and will definitely take care of me strictly. I'm sure they won't let me off easily.

\*Kringgg, kringg\* the voice of the criminal's phone reads.

He immediately picked up the phone. He seems to be talking very seriously. His face seemed frightened, I don't know what he was talking about.

"Coki, come here" he snapped which made the gibberring frightened and approached him.

"What's the boss?"

"The big boss comes the curry, he will see our captives" he said, which made my heart beat a little.

I was wondering about the big boss he was talking about. Who was the boss until they were afraid to face him and even the boss came to see me. Is he one of the brains of this kidnapping.
